Liberty University President Jerry Falwell Jr. was in hot water recently after opening the university to students and faculty in the heat of the pandemic.

Now, Falwell—a devout supporter of President Donald Trump—is in the spotlight again for a questionable picture he uploaded to his Instagram before deleting it.


Beffudled Houston Chronicle reporter Robert Downen posted the photo to his Twitter account.

The full image is below.

The photo features Falwell with his arm around a woman, their shirts lifted and pants unbuttoned. Falwell holds what appears to be wine, but what he labels as "black water."

The caption reads:

"More vacation shots. Lots of good friends visited us on the yacht. I promise that's just black water in my glass. It was a prop only."

Malachi O'Brien, a fellow of Falwell's Falkirk Center, originally claimed the photo was fake, before acknowledging its authenticity but decrying the context with which it was presented.

According to some on Twitter, the picture came from an attempted spoof of the characters Julian and Sarah from the Canadian television program Trailer Park Boys. Falwell deleted a video spoof of the show from his Instagram as well.

One Twitter account claiming to be run by a Liberty University alum said that if a Liberty student had posted a similar photo, they would've received disciplinary action.

This wasn't the only account to take that position.




Regardless of the context, people were really confused.





People wouldn't stop roasting Falwell either.


Falwell hasn't issued a clarification on his Instagram.

Melania Just Held A Bizarre Press Conference To Debunk 'False Smears' Related To Jeffrey Epstein—And Everyone Had The Same Response

First Lady Melania Trump had everyone thinking the same thing after she held a bizarre press conference on Thursday to deny that she had anything but casual ties to Jeffrey Epstein, the late disgraced financier, pedophile, sexual abuser, and sex trafficker.

Mrs. Trump publicly denied any ties to convicted sex offenders Epstein and his procurer Ghislaine Maxwell, saying claims linking her to Epstein are “lies” meant to damage her reputation. She said she met her husband, President Donald Trump at a New York City party in 1998 and did not meet Epstein until 2000, contradicting a witness statement in the Epstein files that alleges Epstein introduced the couple.

Dem Rep. Sarah McBride Perfectly Shames Nancy Mace For Her Transphobic Response To McBride's Condemnation Of Trump

Delaware Democratic Representative Sarah McBride pushed back at South Carolina Republican Representative Nancy Mace after Mace responded with transphobia to McBride's criticism of President Donald Trump's genocidal threat to kill the "whole civilization" of Iran.

Trump has insisted that God supports his war on Iran and declared—before a provisional ceasefire was announced—that "a whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again" ahead of a deadline to bomb Iran’s power plants and bridges that legal scholars and world leaders have said would constitute war crimes.

Comedian Explains How Millennials' Midlife Crises Are Different From Past Generations—And He's Spot On

Don't make promises you cannot keep, unless your goal is to hurt someone.

Millennials know that practically better than anyone. They were fed a long and impassioned series of advice, hyper-focused on the importance of getting a college degree in order to find a good job. They were also force-fed traditionalist ideals of getting married, having kids, and buying a nice house with the money they'd be making from that great job, of course.
